lovingly restored mansion. has a lift. suite was on second floor with lovely view of well kept rear gardens. friendly, helpful staff. Excellent food. Did the Audiotour of house & garden which was excellent way to explore the staterooms..and luckily weddings did not exclude any of the rooms. It felt relaxing, even whilst dining in the saloon..it was not too formal. there was a large birthday celebration party going on in the refectory, but it did not interfere with our enjoyment of the hotel
